Failed to impress last start; broke in score up and was out of position at the start 7th (Sr2) over 2240m at this track beaten 17 m by Dukes Choice (2:40.50) in NR 70 to 79 on April 12 at $23. Showed ability the outing before when she posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Sr2) at Bendigo (1:57.60) beating Beta Than Love in NR 56 to 64 on April 2 at $2.60 at the bell was 6th-12.2m 2WWC.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following April 19 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a neck (Fr3) at Shepparton (2:42.10) beating Mongiana in NR 60 to 74 on May 20 at $4.20 at the bell was leading 1.89. This race will be harder than that win.
